I'M a Poet
I'm a poet, though I can't say that I'm good
Cuz I can always find those better than me
I have low esteem, lower than most
But it can't stop me from writing poetry
I wish to be different, I wish to be you
I wish to sink lower to the ocean blue
But I'm not suicidal, I love my life
Even though it can be full of endless strife
I love to write, I do it day and night
Seldom do I travel without a pen
For what would happen if I got an idea
without a pen I would lose it right then
Though I'd like to be different, I still love myself
And it takes all of me not to sit on a shelf
I listen to music, it's my inspiration
and will continue to be till my life has begun
